"What ——? for?" Guo Rugui was directly frightened to death: "The Americans have formed an alliance with the Japanese?"

"Nope." Qin Wei looked at him strangely, "How could the United States ally with Japan?" Unless both China and the Soviet Union stand on the opposite side of the United States and make the Americans feel threatened, then there is still some hope. But as we look like in China now...... How can Americans care about us? ”

"So? That, that...... That's fine. Guo Rugui breathed a sigh of relief, and then glared at Qin Wei angrily: "Then you still say that the Americans will blockade China?" Chief Qin, do you know that this will scare people to death? ”

"With China as it is now, who should be afraid of?" Qin Wei looked at the other party funny: "Isn't it just the United States?" Even if they really join forces with the Japanese to deal with us, we can just fight them...... One poor and two white, just have a good time. It will be easier to rebuild when the time comes. ”

"If this word spreads, do you know how much trouble it can cause you?" Guo Rugui completely understood how out of tune Qin Wei was. It's so hard to fight Japan, and you dare to say that you will fight with the United States again? Is this guy Chinese or not?

"Don't talk about causing me trouble, I'm not afraid of those things. Moreover, do you really think that we will not fight the United States across the Pacific Ocean? Qin Wei smiled, but his eyes were very cold: "Tell you, we and the United States will be each other's biggest enemies sooner or later." ”

"How?" Guo Rugui asked casually.

"Because of the hegemony of the world!"

"Ahem, ahem—"

"You don't believe me?"

"That...... There's something going on in my operations department, so I'll ...... first."

"Sit down!"

"Chief Qin, I'm really in trouble!"

"If you sit down, sit down, where is all this nonsense?" Qin Weiji glared at Guo Rugui with a cold gaze as much as he could, "Let's go...... You just look down on me! ”

"No, how dare I look down on Chief Qin?" What iniquity have I made? Knowing that this guy was out of tune, he actually rushed up to chat with him...... No wonder when I first came, He Yingqin and the others found a chance to slip away. Sitting and chatting with this guy all the time is really not something that ordinary people can afford. Guo Rugui sat back slowly, but secretly regretted it.

"Drink tea!"

Seeing Guo Rugui sit down, Qin Wei pushed this guy's teacup in front of him and said sharply.

"Not thirsty." Guo Rugui hurriedly said.

"Afraid of choking?"

"Chief Qin is joking." Do you know that you still ask? Guo Rugui smiled ugly.

"You were about to run, did you think what I said was too out of tune? Too unreliable? Qin Wei asked him again.

"No...... "Since you know the Tao, why do you still ask?" Guo Rugui was already a little impatient. Although he was not afraid of offending Qin Wei, he really didn't want to offend this guy.

"You're a major general, how can you be so frivolous?" Qin Wei sighed. Again.

"Am I frivolous?" Guo Rugui couldn't cry or laugh, and at the same time was a little angry: "Chief Qin, although Guo is not talented, he can be regarded as valued by Chairman Meng and the commanders of the Military Commission...... You say I'm frivolous? Is there any evidence? ”

"You're going to run before I'm done, and you don't even want to hear the reason. Isn't this frivolous and what is it? Qin Wei glared at him, "If you go outside and tell others again." Doesn't that ruin my reputation even more? ”

"I'm not a mouthy person." You can't be a spy if you are too talkative. Guo Rugui shook his head and said.

"Really?" Qin Wei looked at him. "Since you're not frivolous...... Then let me ask, do you think what I just said makes sense? ”

"Makes sense. But ......," Guo Rugui paused, "it's too 'long-term'!" ”

"Not necessarily." Qin Wei snorted coldly, "The European war is imminent. Sooner or later, the Americans will intervene...... Do you know Mackinder? ”

"Of course, I know it." Guo Rugui raised his eyebrows, "That's a famous British politician and geographer. He put forward the 'Lu Xin Theory', which is also known as the 'Heartland Theory'. For the first time, the political power of the world was analyzed from a global strategic perspective...... Whoever rules Eastern Europe rules the hinterland of the continent; Whoever rules the hinterland of the continent rules the island of the world; Whoever rules the island of the world will rule the world world. This 'heartland theory' is the opposite of Mahan's 'sea power theory'. Although it was not taken seriously at first, after the First World War, it began to strongly influence the foreign policy of the countries of the world, especially Western Europe. Because of his remarks, Britain now attaches great importance to Eastern Europe, and this is probably an important reason why Britain, France, and other countries have adopted a policy of appeasement towards Germany and want to guide it to attack the Soviet Union. On the one hand, it is true that Britain and France are unwilling to take matters into their own hands, so that their countries will suffer losses in World War I, and on the other hand, it is also because the existence of the Soviet Union threatens Eastern Europe...... Once these countries are occupied by the Soviet Union, it will be possible for the Soviet Union to gain hegemony in the world. ”

"That's all?" Qin Wei asked.

"Of course it's not only. But what are we talking about? "Do you want to test me? Guo Rugui was a little strange how Qin Wei suddenly paid attention to these theoretical things, although he also knew these things very well, but he didn't plan to follow Qin Wei's words. He's not a puppet.

"Let's talk about it." Qin Wei smiled: "But I'd like to ask, Director Guo, what do you think of Mackinder's theory?" ”

"Very clever."

"That's all?"

"What else else?" Guo Rugui smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that we don't have such scholars in China. ”

"But I think Mackinder's theory, although it has a certain generalization, is still a little short." Qin Weidao: "At least I think that geographical factors, compared with factors such as the economy and the personality of leaders, will have a more lasting impact on each country's foreign exchange policy. In other words, geographical location has a significant impact on the country, and the United States is the most powerful position in the world because it is bordered by both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. ”

"America again?" Guo Rugui was already a little skeptical that Qin Wei had suffered any losses in the United States. Otherwise, why keep catching people and talking about the United States?

"As we just said, a major war in Europe is imminent, and the United States will intervene sooner or later...... Do you think that this time, the United States will be driven back to North America by Britain, France, and other countries like it did during World War I, and engage in some kind of 'isolation policy' behind closed doors? Qin Wei asked again.

"That's hard to say." Guo Rugui naturally didn't dare to make a conclusion, not to mention that he really didn't have much research on this aspect.

"I can tell you, no!" Qin Wei sneered, "The total economic aggregate of the United States is already saturated. Severe overproduction led to their 1929 economic crisis, which until recently barely ended. …… Therefore, the U.S. government will seek a larger and broader market from the outside world. ”

"Makes sense." Guo Rugui moved his butt again, he wanted to leave, but he knew that Qin Wei would definitely not let him go, so he was really embarrassed.

"The Great War in Europe, although I conclude that Germany will be defeated again, and that Britain and France will suffer great losses far beyond the First World War, and thus lose their present international status, but this is not yet happening. So, let's talk about Asia first! Qin Wei changed his words, "What do you think the United States thinks about East Asia?" ”

"Do you want to take advantage of a profit?" Guo Rugui replied.

"That was before. Now, it's definitely thinking about it all. Qin Wei smiled coldly, "Because Japan, the Soviet Union, and China have all fallen into a big war." Even after the war, it will be difficult for these three countries to maintain the current situation because of the huge losses in the war. In particular, Japan's huge loss of national strength made it impossible for it to cope with the surging United States. So, at that time, the United States will take the opportunity to swallow the interests of the entire western Pacific Ocean and lock China and the Soviet Union, which are most likely to threaten it, on the mainland. ”

"What do you mean?" The United States will definitely come. Because these powers are inherently virtuous, they can lock China and the Soviet Union to the mainland...... Guo Rugui felt that she was a little interested.

"Sooner or later, the United States will enter the war, and it will participate not only in the war in Europe, but also in the war between us and Japan." Qin Wei said: "And in the interests of the United States, it will definitely attack Japan, which has the strongest maritime strength in East Asia." With its strong industrial strength, it will not be difficult for the United States to defeat Japan. And once Japan is defeated, the United States will be tantamount to taking the Japanese archipelago in its hands...... Have you seen the map of the world? ”

"Of course."

"Starting from Alaska in the United States, along the Aleutian Islands in the Bering Sea, to the Chiba Islands, the Japanese archipelago, the Ryukyu Islands, the island of Taiwan, the Philippine Islands, the Greater Sunda Islands, and the Lesser Sunda Islands in northern Japan...... By extension, the United States will have completely encircled the entire Pacific Ocean and taken it into its own pocket! Qin Wei's voice was cold: "At that time, we, and even the Soviet Union, will have to act according to the faces of the Americans." Because we have been firmly locked in a corner of the Eurasian continent by the other side. ”

“…… What exactly are you trying to say? Guo Rugui imagined the map of the world world that he had once seen, and a trace of horror flashed in his eyes. He suddenly discovered that once what Qin Wei said came true, China would really be blocked. The long coastline is so long that there is not a single outlet to the ocean...... But if a big country like China is really independent and unified, how can it be trapped only on the mainland? In this world, how can a country that has no strength on the ocean be worthy of being called a strong country? But if it is not a strong country, should it be humiliated by the great powers all the time? And if they have to be humiliated by the great powers all the time, how can their ideals be realized? Where do they find the goals they have been fighting for for so many years? …… Thinking of that terrible situation, unconsciously, Guo Rugui used honorifics to Qin Wei.

"Taiwan!" Qin Wei's fingers slammed on the table, "Only Taiwan!" Taking Taiwan breaks this island chain...... The sea will open up to us. Therefore, no matter who ultimately controls China, Taiwan cannot be spared. To let Taiwan out of Chinese mainland is to be China's sinner. (To be continued......)
